My husband is really not a fish eater... fish and him stay far apart at all times, but I noticed that you wrote you dont like fish either - do you think I should try this recipe??
What do you serve it with?

I hate all fish but Tilapia that is fried is different. It is a very meaty fish and does not smell. It is more like a light schnitzel. The recipe I posted is really good because it is a milky crust with panko crumbs and cornmeal and italian seasoning so it has some great flavor. I sometimes even bake it instead of frying it but frying is better. I say you try it. It is meant to go with tartar sauce. I will post the recipe sometime. I like it with fries. Try it, you wont regret it.

Well what doesn't he like about fish? Is it the taste, the texture, the smell? I have marinated tilapia like meat before in some lemon juice, olive oil, grated garlic, and salt and pepper, and then broiled it. I seemed to cover up a lot of the tilapias mild fish flavor, and it made it really moist.

I think it is mostly the fish taste probably combined with the smell. Maybe you can post the recipe of the marinated tilapia - It sounds delicious!
